Title: Determination of a specific immunoglobulin using multiple antigens
Inventor: WIENHUES URSULA-HENRIKE
IPC: C07K14/16
Filed: 1995-07-24
Granted: 1998-03-19
Abstract: The invention concerns a process for the immunological determination of a specific antibody in a fluid sample. The process involves incubating the fluid sample in the presence of a solid phase with two antigens directed against the antibody whose presence is to be determined; the first antigen carries at least one marker group, while the second is either (a) bonded to the solid phase or (b) present in a form in which it can bond with the solid phase, and betrays the presence of the antibody being sought by showing the presence of the marker group in the solid phase and/or in the fluid phase. The proposed process is characterised by the fact that at least one of the two antigens has several epitopic regions which react with the antibody to be determined.

Title: Laminated frame assembly and method for using
Inventor: LIEBERMAN AARON
IPC: B42D1/08
Filed: 1989-08-30
Granted: 1992-04-09
Abstract: Framing apparatus for framing snap shots and the like, including a flexible rectangular-shaped transparent sheet having an opaque frame printed about its perimeter. A pressure sensitive adhesive coating is coextensive with the aforementioned opaque frame. A transparent sheet of much thinner gauge than the first-mentioned sheet is releasably secured to the pressure sensitive adhesive coating. The unassembled frame is moved about the snap shot or picture to be framed. The transparent nature of the assembly facilitates viewing of the picture therebeneath, enabling the user to select any portion of the picture. A writing instrument may be employed to form an outline of the frame on the picture, or the thin gauge cover sheet may be removed and the photograph pressed against the heavy plastic sheet. The portion of the picture extending beyond the frame is cut away from the part of the picture being framed. The heavy gauge flexible sheet serves as an excellent guide for cutting the photograph about the frame without any danger of damaging the frame. When the picture is cut out before mounting, the thin gauge cover sheet is then removed and the photograph pressed against the heavy gauge plastic sheet. The opaque frame conceals the possible rough edged perimeter of the photograph providing a nicely finished laminated photograph and frame assembly. An alternative embodiment provides a foldable flexible transparent sheet for mounting and framing plural graphic material in a back-to-back fashion.

Abstract: Various optical apparatus provide a source of parallel light (7, 75). The parallel light (7, 75) is generally achieved by directing an incident beam at the apex of a prism (1, 22, 24, 26, 28). The prism may have varying configurations. One configuration has a forward conical face (24). Another configuration has a pyramidal forward end (22). Other configurations are also disclosed. The application also discloses the use of reflectors (20, 78, 216, 316, 400) having internal reflective surfaces shaped as three-dimensional figures of revolution, for example paraboloid or ellipsoid. The reflectors (20, 78, 216, 316) focus light incident onto the reflectors at one or more foci (F, 220, 320, 420). The reflectors may be used in combination with the optical apparatus including the prisms (1, 22, 24, 26, 28).

Title: Coin validators
Inventor: WAITE TIMOTHY PETER
IPC: G07D/
Filed: 1990-07-27
Granted: 1994-03-24
Abstract: A coin validator has a thickness sensor formed by two coils positioned one on each side of the coin path. The coil outputs are processed separately to derive values which, when combined, produce a thickness-indicating measurement which is independent of coin position. Each output may be processed to give values which are linearly dependent upon coin position with the same constant of proportionality. Alternatively, one output is scaled relative to the other to an extent dependent upon the thickness for which the coin is to be tested, so that the thickness-indicating measurement does not vary significantly over a region which corresponds to a likely maximum variation in the position of coins of that thickness.
